  I actually knew a few who were genuinely nice guys. Most of the time, however, the elders' lips were glued to the CO's butt, and the CO liked it.

  an elder came around this morning at 9am to ask if my husband wanted to come with him on a bible study.

  my husband nipped from the bathroom to the bedroom in his undies to get dressed, while i talked to the elder!

  the elder talked about how he just happened to think my husband might be free this morning, and just happened to get a call from someone wanting a bible study, and then he said to me, "why don't you come visit my house some time?

  i heard through the grapevine this weekend that my second cousin and her husband made a trip to india to investigate possible outsourcing of printed docs for the wtbts.

  he is a uber bethelite in the purchasing dept and my cousin is a good bethelite wife.

  they were living in brooklyn but have been moved up to wallkill in the last few months.

  so this morning we flirt and i tell her what a "dirty girl" she is for buying those books...but i was thinking this from a girl who broke a frying pan on my car years ago because i didnt want to go to the meetings.

  slowly i wore down that rock that she is with little facts and qoutes...i would not have stayed with her if she remained the fanatic witness she was....also she now swears like a sailor...i like that..

  (reuters) - a south african cardinal who helped elect pope francis this week has told the bbc pedophilia is an illness and not a crime.. cardinal wilfrid fox napier, the catholic archbishop of durban, told bbc radio 5 on saturday that pedophilia was a "disorder" that needed to be treated.. "from my experience, pedophilia is actually an illness.

  "My concern: How can society deal justly, fairly & equitably with the abused, who has suffered incalculable damage, then goes on to abuse?

  "Do the Church & society not have to consider the damage he suffered when deciding what to do? Or does the abused abuser lose all his rights?

  Yeah, well, I was sexually abused by several family members when I was a kid and I'm not a pedophile. Being abused does not automatically make you an abuser.

  just a clarification please.

  some posters on other threads talked about "obedience" being an important factor to get circuit assembly and district assembly parts.

  i don't fully understand.

  Do You Believe In ANYTHING That The Witnesses Taught At This Point In Your Life?

  by minimus in

  for example, they pride themselves in what they don't believe such as immortal souls, the trinity, hellfire, etc.. some exjws still believe it is the "truth" and support the basics.. .

  The only things I've held onto are the core values - being a decent person, loving my neighbor, honesty, etc.

  The rest of it just makes me feel tired.

  "A decision made in heaven days or weeks ago?" How does it get from heaven to the GB? Do they get visions? Dreams? Mysterious emails? Sheesh!

  Every cult leader says that they get messages from God.
